National Park Service, Intermountain GIS Program Office 2003 vector digital data This is a polygon and line coverage of the 1978 Wilderness Plan recommendation submitted to congress of wilderness areas and potential wilderness areas at Colorado National Monument. This dataset was mostly heads-up digitized from a graphic entitled "Wilderness Plan, Colorado National Monument, Colorado" and dated January 1978 found at the NPS Technical Information Center [TIC identifier: 119 20006 C]. This dataset is derived from the latest official NPS Wilderness Recommendation which was transmitted from the President to Congress on May 11, 1978, but never enacted. The official Wilderness Recommendation is based on careful studies of roadless areas, public hearings, and written responses. This dataset has been revised from the official map to adjust buffers along roads and utilities, account for changes to the boundary and land status, and reflect more accurate measurement available through new GIS technology. To provide a graphical depiction of the recommended wilderness and potential wilderness areas at Colorado National Monument. The intended use of all data in the park's GIS library is to support diverse park activities including planning, management, maintenance, research, and interpretation. Established May 24, 1911, and on 20,453.93 acres, Colorado National Monument consists of geologic features including: towering red sandstone monoliths, deep, sheer-walled canyons, and a variety of wildlife (bighorn sheep, golden eagles, mule deer and mountain lions). 197801 publication date Complete Irregular -108.742841 -108.618545 39.113808 38.976396 none wild wilderness none Colorado National Monument COLM National Park Service NPS United States US USA North America Colorado Mesa County National Park System Unit Code ThesaurusCOLM National Park System Unit Name ThesaurusColorado National Monument National Park Service Theme Category ThesaurusWilderness ISO 19115 Topic CategoryEnvironment none This dataset does not represent the official wilderness recommendation of the National Park Service.

The user defined attribute field in the polygon attribute table was populated by Intermountain Region GIS staff and reflect the designations printed on the hardcopy source graphic. There are no duplicate features present. There are no dangle nodes present. Arc and polygon topology was established with ArcInfo's BUILD command This dataset is complete, representing the 1978 recommended wilderness and potential wilderness areas.

An unregistered tiff file was created of the Wilderness Plan graphic from a microfish copy of the original. The tiff file was brought into ArcInfo as a grid with the IMAGEGRID command. The new grid was registered to the park's current digital GIS boundary file using the ArcInfo CONTROLPOINTS command. A 4th order polynomial transformation was applied to the grid using the registration tabs established with CONTROLPOINTS using the GRIDWARP command. wildplanmap 20020409 +Copied arcs from the digital boundary and roads datasets in places where the wilderness boundary abutted or was a buffered distance from those features. +Heads up digitized the wilderness boundaries not coincidental with the park boundary or roads from the newly georeferenced grid in ArcEdit (see previous step). +Adjusted the heads-up digitized arcs with hypsography from the USGS DLG data. This involved moving whole sections of the arcs (not vertices) to more accurately coincide with the mesa and canyon topography. +Buffered the telephone line feature with a 2 meter buffer on both sides and copied the arcs into the current coverage to create a new polygon. +Created polygon and arc topology with the ArcInfo CLEAN and BUILD commands. +Created and populated user defined fields in the polygon and arc attribute tables to store wilderness designations and arc source information. wildplanmap, colm_area_rds.shp, parkboundary_line.shp, dlg_hypso_data, telephoneline 200205 Jennifer McCollom National Park Service, Intermountain GIS Program Office GIS Specialist mailing and physical address
